Upon further investigation I'm not sure a replacement for radio_admin is needed in newforms-admin. It seems the capability already exists, since the user can supply their own custom widgets by overriding formfield_for_dbfield. This thread shows it is already being done by some people: <http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/722ccaa9725293d0/4b52df7a428cb042?lnk=gst&q=RadioSelect&rnum=1#4b52df7a428cb042>http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/722ccaa9725293d0/4b52df7a428cb042?lnk=gst&q=RadioSelect&rnum=1#4b52df7a428cb042 It may not be as easy, and it may not be possible for the user to get it to look quite exactly like it did in the old scheme, but the basic capability exists. So perhaps all that is needed is to remove the old radio_admin Field attribute? (Before I discovered this I did get it working by adding support for "radio_admin_fields" in a manner very similar to how "raw_id_fields" is done, and it's not a lot of code or anything too hairy. But coming to newforms-admin without the legacy of the old way, I think I'd wonder why there's this "radio_admin_fields" special case when the design supports a more general and flexible solution.)
